Maui, the second largest of the Hawaiian Islands, is 729 square miles. It has some of the best beaches in the world, and now also a very active airport. Cruise ships start 7 day cruises from Maui as an option to Honolulu sailings. A Maui vacation package is most popular for those who wish to have a cruise vacation to visit each island.
